The real issue here is debunkers who can't get their facts straight.

You certainly seem to fit in that catagory.

For example: the original post was 314 lines, the rebuttal 593;
the maximum text which could have been quoted was 53% not 80%.

Aside from the fact the discussion would have been a bit difficult to follow
if the items at issue were not referenced, and that when it come to wasting
bandwidth there are 1389 separate articles just in this group alone, how does
it save bandwidth to make a frivolous follow up?

When it comes to this topic I must defer to your obvious experience.
